Dynamic mechanism for sHSP regulation of tubulin assembly. An important function of aB crystallin is the stabilization of the assembly of microfilaments, intermediate filaments and microtubule networks. The interactive sequences in aB crystallin used for these functions have been identified using a variety of techniques, including pin arrays and mutagenesis. This binding of resulted in a strong inhibition of virion assembly or release in vivo. When challenged with a single bout of exhaustive treadmill running, AV.RSV.MCAT infected mice performed much better irrespective of gender and body weight. Peripheral blood is an essential tissue type for biomedical research because of its critical roles in immune response and metabolism. The simplicity and ease of collection has also made peripheral blood an attractive surrogate tissue for the discovery of biomarkers of hematologic diseases and a wide range of nonhematologic disorders. Thus, applying microarray technology on peripheral blood may provide new insights of Trichostatin A HDAC inhibitor variations in global gene expression specifically associated with states of normal and disease and has the potential of applying the technology in disease detection and diagnosis. Although global gene expression technology had been successfully applied on fractionated blood samples such as PBMCs, successful studies of gene expression profiles in whole-blood total RNA have been limited due to heterogeneous cell types and potential ex vivo changes from blood handling and processing. PBMCs with a more uniform cell population, containing lymphocytes and monocytes are the most transcriptionally active cells in blood making it an ideal study specimen. However, the extra fractionation procedure for PBMCs requires a prolonged period before RNA stabilization, and this has been shown to have significant ex vivo changes in gene expression profiling. In addition, in multicenter clinical trials, isolation of PBMCs at the time of sample collection has been considered to be a major shortcoming as skilled technicians are needed for processing the samples at the site and this could also lead to operator induced variability in microarrys. However, with the challenges unique to the whole blood sample, including complex composition of heterogeneous cell types and lower detection sensitivities and higher data variability, it is difficult now to apply microarray technology on whole-blood total RNA. It is widely believed that the abundant globin transcripts in whole blood are the causative factors for the lowered sensitivity and increased variability in microarray based gene expression studies. The current study is an exploratory research with the purpose of developing proper methods that would deplete hemoglobin RNA from whole blood, for applying microarray technology on globin depleted whole-blood total RNA.
